Then when people troll, they'll smart ping you until you're deaf or you turned off the smart ping sound.

In Paragon it limits how many pings you can do at a time, and then slowly gives back ping ability when you stop spamming.

Since when are you able to spam pings in any League of Legends game? It always stops you.

Because part of the main shtick of LoL is communication between players. It shouldn't be removed because of toxic people; That's a fault with the players and the community, rather than the game's function.

Games like DoTA even managed to add voice chat without too much toxicity.

Communication is a tool, and it's up to the players to use it for good or bad.

Good, you end up with Dota(which even then isn't a 100% nontoxic community).

Bad, you end up with CoD.

the only reason why league of legends had a toxic community is because people have the power to make other players angry and then get them banned. Also riot games refuses to give us voice chat, I'm 100% DotA has a playerbase of mature players who know how to use the mute button and not cry to their parents when someone calls them names.

Someone calls you out on your BS and you throw a temper tantrum? They're not the dbags here lmao

Why should it be removed because some people can't exercise self control

Because people can't exercise self control with the report button.

Well pings are useless in itself. Earlier i didnt helped a premade (jax jungle) as they requested help (was top) cause i had to except 2v1 top (as eve forgot smite) and didnt want to loose too much farm.

the match was over at that point and the premades surrendered at 20 even with us winning ._.

next match.. either gragas was deaf or blind. if he stays in the bush next to the lane and you placed a "need assistance" ping right infront of him, we choose to walk to the other end of the map

I'm just saying Paragon has a great system for pings, similar to Overwatch where we can just click a button and it just puts whatever sentence you needed to be there. They have it for pre-game lobby's as well. It's not spammable and it's funny when instead of cursing someone out you just spam the "Good Job!" ping after they die to let them know they made a YUGE mistake. Unlike LoL's toxic reporting system that rewards players' egos by telling them how they got someone else screwed out of all rewards for a month or so

While i personally /mute all at the beginning of every game that matters as everything you will say unless you're masters/challenger falls into one or more of these categories:

  1. I already know it
  2. It is wrong
  3. I'm not interested

It's not the chat function itself that's the problem, it's the people that choose to use it to verbally abuse and harass others instead. It is definitely possible to use the chat in constructive manners that are beneficial to both the game and the environment as well, but it's up to the players themselves on how they want to use it. Again it's not the system, it's the players.

I don't know what kind of bot you are but try actually playing the game before you post in the forums. Thanks!

I do play the game just like you do, and it is definitely possible to use the chat in constructive manners (I do it all the time). Just because I don't share the same opinion as you do doesn't mean that I don't play the game.
